Teeth Whitening

What Is Teeth Whitening?

Teeth whitening is a cosmetic dental procedure that helps lighten the natural color of teeth and remove stains or discoloration. It uses safe, dentist-approved whitening agents to break down stains on the tooth surface, resulting in a brighter and more attractive smile. Professional teeth whitening is more effective and longer-lasting than home remedies or over-the-counter products.

Why Choose Teeth Whitening?

Teeth can become stained or discolored over time due to various factors, including:

  • Consumption of tea, coffee, wine, or colored foods
  • Smoking or tobacco use
  • Poor oral hygiene
  • Natural aging
  • Certain medications

Teeth whitening improves smile aesthetics, boosts self-confidence, and gives a refreshed, youthful appearance.

Types of Teeth Whitening

Dental cleaning is tailored to your oral health condition. The most common types include:

In-Office Teeth Whitening
